As a gleeful, unapologetic fan of James Franco—the Best Supporting Actor Oscar that he should have won for Pineapple Express shall be his for Spring Breakers, JUST YOU WATCH*—you basically don’t need to say anthing else to get me to go to a movie than “evil hillbilly Franco.” But then you say “Jason Statham”? And then you say… okay, nobody’s that excited about either Kate Bosworth or Winona Ryder. But still. EVIL HILLBILLY FRANCO.

Pret-ty sure this’ll make for an excellent double feature with As I Lay Dying.

*No it won’t. But it should be.

With honor and distinction, Erik Henriksen served as the executive editor of the Portland Mercury from 2004 to 2020. He can now be found at henriksenactual.com.
